Makoto Aida, Martha Atienza, Cai Guo-Qiang, Chim↑Pom from Smappa!Group, Heri Dono, indieguerillas, Takashi Murakami, N. S. Harsha, Sanitas Pradittasnee, Motoyuki Shitamichi + Jeffrey Lim, Do Ho Suh, Pannaphan Yodmanee
The inaugural exhibition features representative works and freshly commissioned works by 12 artists and groups, including those who involved with Benesse Art Site Naoshima from its early years, as well as others who have developed a relationship since 2016 when the Benesse Prize moved from Venice to Asia, and also those encountered on research trips in recent years. The works are on view in multiple gallery spaces located on the first floor and two basement floors, as well as the cafeteria and outdoor sites. Through the sharp gazes and questions that art casts upon our times, society and the environment, we are encouraged to think about and reaffirm what is “Well-Being” – the idea rooted in the origin of Benesse’s activities that began in Naoshima.
